I Guess That's Why They Call It The Blues

All of a sudden I seem to using blues in my cards - maybe it's the lack of blue sky or maybe it's because I'm so in love with the Magnolia papers I bought recently!

Here's another blue card that has been a work in progress throughout the course of the week.

I followed the sketch from this week's challenge at TOMIC and used the lovely Magnolia papers again. The card base is Bazzill and I cut a lacy border using my Martha Stewart PATP. I can't remember what the make of the die for the oval mat for Tilda - Marianne? Nellies?

Tilda is coloured with Copics but has also had a very liberal covering of Diamond Stickles.  I used the Doohickey swirls and mistletoe dies - you can just see the mistletoe sticking out from under the flowers, which as always are from Wild Orchid Crafts, along with the pearls and stamens.  All of the flowers had a little spritz of Dazzling Diamonds Glimmer Mist although I'm not sure how well it shows up in the photo. Finally I cut a tag using a Whiff of Joy die and added a Bazzill rub on sentiment.

I'd like to enter this card in the following challenges:

The Official Magnolia Challenge - Follow the sketch and use blue, white and glitter
Magnolia Down Under - Anything Goes
Totally Tilda - Thank You

Goodness, I don't think I've entered so many challenges in one go before!

Off to do a bit of school work now, then haggis for tea!

Have a lovely week and I'll try to get something made and posted mid-week if I can.

Hugs,
